Publication Type: Conference Paper/Unpublished Manuscript Abstract: When U.S. President George W. Bush authorized an invasion of Iraq in March 2003, critics thought him out to overthrow his father's nemesis, Saddam Hussein. While the Bushes seemingly shared an obsession with the Iraqi leader, their preferred modus operandi as president struck most observers as starkly divergent. Analysts asserted that George H.W. Bush's penchant for multilateralism, the supposed hallmark of Operation Desert Shield/Storm, easily contrasted with his son's preference for unilateralism, epitomized by Operation Iraqi Freedom. Critics of George W. Bush's foreign policy typically faulted him for not emulating his father -- they believed that the United States would be more influential and respected internationally were it the champion of multilateralism. This paper revisits, however, the assumption that Bush p�re practiced a foreign policy altogether different from that of his son. As part of the paper's analysis, a variety of issues are examined: systemic constraints and opportunities (i.e., the end of the Cold War versus the post-9/11 world); personality and professional experience (i.e., a World War II veteran with several decades of government service versus a Vietnam generation son who served six years as governor of Texas); and key advisors (i.e., the father's Republican internationalists, such as James Baker and Brent Scowcroft, versus the son's Republican nationalists and neo-conservatives, such as Dick Cheney and Donald Rumsfeld). This paper juxtaposes cognitive theory (i.e., leadership styles) and poliheuristic theory to analyze the foreign policies of each President Bush.
